Blatter 'to stand down in 2015'
Sepp Blatter will make way for a successor as FIFA president in four years’ time if he is re-elected in June, he announced today.
Blatter is seeking a fourth term as FIFA president and is being challenged by Asian confederation chief Mohamed Bin Hammam.
The 75-year-old told UEFA’s Congress in Paris today that if he wins he will definitely stand down in 2015.
Blatter said: “You know very well that I am a candidate for the next four years as FIFA president but these will be the last four years for which I stand as a candidate.
“Together we have the task of bringing together the adventure we have started.
“We want to ensure a better future for our youth.
